We do 25 acres of hay. Have a JD 4010 and 4020 for the big work. Bought the 4010 first. Have put a new clutch in + rebuilt the injector over 20 years. 4020 no repairs yet. It is handy to have 2 machines so there is a backup. 4010's are relatively cheap to buy as they do not have the 4020 fame. If you have space, buy 2 good machines and fix things when needed. Keep going with the other. We all know even brand new machines go down. the drawback of mine are no cabs. Everything I own was bought used and repaired as needed to run like new. Yes, it takes time but no way could I have got into farming any other way. Knock on wood, I rarely have breakdowns, due to stepped up maintenance on my part. i can say that if you run things not too hard, pay attention to how the machines are running, do the maintenance and easier repairs, the dependability is very high as well as the personal satisfaction.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'.
